In PS 2021, when I use the color range selection tool and then adjust the Fuzziness slider, my computer locks up. Every time. 

 

PS 22.1.0

MacOS 10.15.7

Hi,

I notice Photoshop crashing when using the color range tool. After the first selection with the eyedropper is made, it freezes and I have to force stop.

I upgraded to Big Sur a couple of days ago, and it's still happening there, too. Just wanted to give you some more info! 🙂

Yes, the latest version 22.0. Only happens with the fuzziness slider only lets me move the color range window, no other ps actions until force quit

I was able to repro once, but I haven't figured out the key to make it happen every time on my system. It's tricky one.

It happens for me only when I'm moving the sliders, not when I'm sampling colors. I believe it only happens on the fuzziness slider, but I'm not positive.

This is the window I just got, where it locked up for me. No spinning beach ball. Photoshop just becomes unresponsive. I can move the Color Range window around, but I can't close it or do anything else in photoshop. The Color Range tool also stays in the forefront of my screen (as the active window) even if I start using a different app, like Chrome or Safari. It stays this way until I force-quit photoshop.
I hope this is helpful!
